2. Only when the engine is cool, remove

the radiator drain plug and drain the

coolant into a suitable container.

3. Flush out the system with running

water.

4. Drain the system completely. Insert

and tighten the plug. Add as much

ethylene-glycol-based coolant and

water as necessary to provide freezing

and corrosion protection.

5. In extremely cold climates, add the

amount recommended in the coolant

manufacturer’s instructions.

6. Run the engine at idle with the cooling

system cap off. Slowly add additional

coolant if necessary.

7. At this point, wait until the engine

reaches normal operating temperature;

then depress the accelerator two or

three times. Add more coolant, if

necessary, until the system is full.

8. Install the cooling system cap. Inspect

all connections for leaks. Inspect the

level in the coolant reservoir one more

time.

▼

Changing Coolant (With Rear

Heater)

Have an Authorized Mazda Dealer change

the coolant according to the Scheduled

Maintenance (page 8-3).

▼

Inspecting Brake Fluid Level

Inspect the fluid level in the reservoir

regularly. It should be kept at MAX.

The level normally drops with

accumulated distance, a condition

associated with wear of brake linings. If it

is excessively low, have the brake system

inspected by an Authorized Mazda

Dealer.
